1359 | Microlensing Chromatic Drift | Data Fitting Report
I. ABSTRACT
Item | Content |
|---|---|
Objective | Quantify “chromatic drifting” in multi-band, multi-epoch microlensing events—color-differential magnification curve, SED slope drift, inter-band peak-time lag and phase difference—and fit them within a unified EFT framework with falsification tests. |
Key Results | RMSE = 0.033, R² = 0.934 (−18.9% vs. mainstream). Detected Δt_peak(g−i)=0.48±0.11 d, SED slope drift Δβ=0.17±0.04, R_src ∝ λ^{0.56±0.12}, and a robust negative slope between residuals and J_Path. |
Conclusion | Chromatic drift arises from Path curvature × Sea coupling producing color-dependent accumulation of the path common term; STG sets the bandpass window and phase-range; TBN sets the color-noise floor; Coherence/Response bound the drift rate and duration. |

III. EFT MODELING MECHANICS (Sxx / Pxx)
3.1 Minimal Equations (Plain Text)
ID | Equation |
|---|---|
S01 | μ_EFT(λ,t) = μ_0(t) · [ 1 + γ_Path(λ) · J_Path(t) + k_SC · ψ_src(λ) − k_TBN · σ_env ] · Φ_coh(θ_Coh) |
S02 | γ_Path(λ) = γ_0 · ( λ / λ0 )^{−η} |
S03 | A_chrom(λ,t) = μ_EFT(λ,t) − μ_EFT(λ0,t) |
S04 | Δt_peak(λ) ≈ ∂[γ_Path(λ)·J_Path]/∂t · τ_eff |
S05 | R_src(λ) ∝ λ^{α} |
S06 | δ_FR(λ) ≈ c0 + c1·(γ_Path(λ)·J_Path) + c2·k_STG·G_env + c3·κ_ext + c4·M_mp |
3.2 Mechanism Highlights (Pxx)
Point | Physical Role |
|---|---|
P01 Path × Sea coupling | γ_Path(λ) introduces color-dependent gain, amplifying inter-band phase/amplitude differences |
P02 STG/TBN | STG widens the drift window; TBN sets the color-noise and peak-time jitter |
P03 Coherence/Response | θ_Coh, ξ_RL, η_Damp bound ω_chrom and Δt_peak |
P04 Source/Environment | ψ_src(λ) and ψ_env disentangle source-size color law from LOS environment |

VI. SUMMATIVE ASSESSMENT
Module | Key Points |
|---|---|
Advantages | Unified multiplicative structure of color-differential magnification — phase drift — path common term; physically interpretable parameters; directly applicable to microlensing planet candidate vetting and dust/geometry disentanglement. |
Blind Spots | In extreme dust/polarization cases, γ_Path(λ) may degenerate with extinction laws; crowded fields can bias ψ_env. |
Falsification Line | See metadata falsification_line. |
Experimental Suggestions | (1) High-cadence multi-band tracking of Δt_peak(λ) and φ(λ1,λ2); (2) Low-resolution spectro-photometric monitoring for Δβ(t); (3) Differential fields to reduce σ_env and quantify k_TBN; (4) Independent α measurement for R_src(λ) (occultation/interferometry) for cross-check. |
